A TOAST & TASTE OF SUMMER BENEFIT FOR JDRF OF NORTHERN NEVADA

Atlantis and Encore Beverage give back to juvenile diabetes research

RENO, NV. – Atlantis Casino Resort Spa and Encore Beverage will host the third annual A Toast & Taste of Summer, a wine and food expo to benefit the JDRF of Northern Nevada on Thursday, June 6 at 6p.m. Guests are sure to enjoy exquisite wineries, microbreweries, restaurants, a photography display and live entertainment.

All proceeds from this event will benefit JDRF of Northern Nevada. JDRF is the only global organization with a strategic plan to deliver a continuous flow of life-changing therapies and, ultimately, a cure for Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) through the funding of research. T1D is an autoimmune disease that strikes both children and adults. Unrelated to diet or lifestyle, T1D causes a lifelong dependence on injected insulin and carries the constant threat of devastation and life-threatening complications. T1D affects up to 3,000,000 Americans with 30,000 new cases diagnosed each year. Help us give back to JDRF to ensure we can bring a cure home to our loved ones.

The cost to attend is $35 in advance, and $45 at the door. Purchase tickets at the Atlantis Gift Shop, local wine shops or by calling 775.824.4467. Atlantis is offering room rates at $59 to anyone who attends the event. Please call reservations at 800.723.6500 with group code STOAST3.

Live entertainment by: Music styling by Reno group, the Tim Tucker Band. Tucker is the lead vocalist, whose melodies and rhythms can create a significant hypnotic mood; Boris Tavcar lays the drums to establish a strong beat, and Danny Clay Williams plays a 5 string bass, rounding out the strong rhythm.
